The Combination of Cystatin C and Serum Creatinine Improves the Monitoring of Kidney Function in Patients with Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease
Better GFR estimations are required for those patients considered to have chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to the new American Diabetes Association recommendations, particularly to assess the progression of their CKD, which may not be accurately estimated by the CG and MDRD equations (2). GFR...

| Zusammenfassung: | Better GFR estimations are required for those patients considered to have chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to the new American Diabetes Association recommendations, particularly to assess the progression of their CKD, which may not be accurately estimated by the CG and MDRD equations (2). GFR was measured by ^sup 51^Cr-EDTA clearance [i-GFR, 33.2 (14.8) mL * min^sup -1^ * (1.73 m^sup 2^)^sup -1^], and compared to the recommended and new composite estimations by use of correlations, paired t tests, Bland-Altman procedures, and absolute percentage difference with i-GFR. sCr was quantified on an Olympus AU 640 analyzer by use of the Jaffé method with bichromatic measurements according to the manufacturer's specifications. |
